The song "Gold Dust Woman" by Fleetwood Mac from the Rumours album with a montage of Stevie Nicks photos. Enjoy!Below are two quotes, from Stevie Nicks, about the meaning of "Gold Dust Woman"."[On what Gold Dust Woman is about] Well the gold dust refers to cocaine, but it's not completely about that, because there wasn't that much cocaine around then. Everybody was doing a little bit ~ you know, we never bought it or anything, it was just around ~ and I think I had a real serious flash of what this stuff could be, of what it could do to you. The whole thing about how we love the ritual of it, the little bottle, the diamond-studded spoons, the fabulous velvet bags. For me, it fit right into the candles and incense and all that stuff. And I really imagined that it could overtake everything, never thinking in a million years it would overtake me. I must have met a few people who I thought did too much coke, and I must have been impressed by that. Because I made it into a whole story." ~Stevie Nicks, SPIN Magazine, October, 1997 "Gold Dust Woman was a little bit about drugs ~ it was about you know keeping going. It was about cocaine. And, uh, you know after all these years ~ since I haven't done any cocaine since 1986 I can talk about it now you know. But it was ,ah, at that point ~ it was ~ I don't think I had ever been so tired in my whole life as I was when we were like - doing that. You know I think it was shocking me ~ the whole rock'n'roll life ~ was really heavy and it was so much work and it was so everyday intense you know. Being in Fleetwood Mac was like being in the army. It was like you have to be there. You have to be there and you have to be there as on time as you can be there. And even if there nothing you have to do, you have to be there. So Gold Dust Woman was really my kind of symbolic look at somebody going through a bad relationship, and doing alot of drugs, and trying to just make it ~ trying to live ~ you know trying to get through it to the next thing."~Stevie Nicks, VH1 The Making of Rumours, 1997

the fact its talking about a "gold dust" woman also suggests its about heroin as street quality heroin comes as a "golden brown" colour hence the name of the stranglers song

you dont use a spoon for anything when preparing cocaine, your thinking of heroin

She was pretty high around the time she wrote this song and sang it, so nobody knows what its about ...ask her. She wasnt singing of the time she..bla,bla bla. She was doin toot on her piano! She may have been thinking of gals from the gold rush, doin what they gotta do, As Neil Young would do. Or she coulda been singing about being so high on ludes that the 9 lines of coke may have brought her to be normal...ask her.

What is the meaning?

Ofcourse. She's singing of the time when she was addicted to cocaine.

Um what the fuck? "Take your silver spoon and dig your grave?" There is an obvious double meaning there.
